I sure do miss Ohio, but I miss Bratworks even more! Bratworks was always our go to place for great German sausage when Dean Fagan was still making this great product! Unfortunately like many of the other original bratwurst artisans that once produced product in Bucyrus, Ohio they retire but have no one left to carry the torch in this ever changing world. Fortunately, when Dean was close to retirement ( age 76) he decided to sell his equipment and recipes to another generation of Bratwurst makers. Unfortunately no one from Bucyrus picked up the torch and Southland drive thru closed. I was fortunate enough to find this article on the internet prior to coming back home to Bucyrus last week for a yearly visit. Bratworks recipes still live on outside of Tiffin, Ohio at Smith Family Frosted Foods. I am sharing a link below to the original article. I stopped in their retail store located at the plant where they produce some 200 UPC's and purchased some great Bratworks bratwurst. The people that run the operation are very friendly, and the retail store is worth the drive to checkout the other products they sell.

The drive thru is closed but you can still purchase their brats at Kroger (in Bucyrus). They are now made by a different packer, however they are still delicious. Better than Carle's. read more

Taking a job in this city where I drive in from Columbus each day, I am forced to learn the city, and the good food haunts. I'm a lover of sausage and all things in that area so I was surprised to find that Bucyrus is all about bratwurst. I was even more surprised to find a place I can get drive through brats. Score. For $5 I got a nice size brat on a rye bun w/mustard and kraut, bag of chips, and bottle of pop. Not a bad deal. The brat was juicy and seasoned well. The bun was soft and the kraut was a nice touch. It made for a nice lunch. My only complaint was that they do not take credit/debit cards - small problem as there is a bank right down the block. I'll be back.....probably far too often. read more

This is as good as it gets. The band I play with, McGuffey Lane has stopped there at least 25 times as we traveled through Bucyrus. It's the same great brat every time. We prefer the jalapeno spicy brat. We have actually had a few people drive up there and buy them by the case to grill out at our homes in the summer. mmmmmmmm good. read more

They are undoubtedly the best Brats anywhere. I will have to make a trip to Bucyrus to pick up a few dozen soon. On dark buns with kraut and mustard, it doesn't get any better! read more
